Microcomputer Boring and Subsurface Data Package: User's Guide.

Abstract

A data base package for storage, retrieval, and display of boring and subsurface data for geotechnical projects is described, and detailed instructions for using the package are given with examples for actual projects. The data package is designed for storage, rapid retrieval, and display of boring locations and boring logs. The package provides for easy, interactive data entry and editing. Data storage and retrieval are accomplished using a purchased copy of dBASE II Data Base Management System (trademark of Ashton-Tate) on microcomputers. The data entry and retrieval programs developed for the package are designed for a low skill level and minimum training of personnel. (Author)
